That may well be why it was mounted that way as that particular camaro did have what were either cal-trac or slide-a-link mounting plates installed on the rear axle. Hmmm, I wonder if those mounting plates move the rear shock over some to give more clearance for mounting the wilwood calipers at the rear on both sides.

It's been a while since my stuff came in over at my builders shop for the 72 RS but I thought my builder said something about the kit we received becoming some kind of a "new Package or system" that they are looking to release (if they haven't already)....

I know the fronts are 13" 6 piston calipers and I think the back were 12" 4 piston calipers with e-brake incorporated into the rotors as discussed above. I'm hoping to take some project update pic's early next week and will ask my builder about the package then.
